If you're seeking a capable midsize SUV that excels in Colorado's variable climate and terrain, the 2018 Ford Edge SEL with the Equipment Group 201A and All Wheel Drive (AWD) offers a compelling package. From navigating mountain passes and snow packed roads to daily commuting along the Front Range, this model strikes a balance between comfort, performance, and safety. Below are the key benefits of owning this vehicle in Colorado, what features make it particularly suited to the state, and how it stacks up.
Colorado winters are notorious for snow, ice, and sudden changes in road conditions. AWD gives you better grip and propulsion when accelerating out of corners, on hills, or in slippery patches. This enhances confidence during snowstorms, icy stretches (mountain passes, foothills), or when roads are just wet or slushy. It also helps meet Colorado's traction laws when AWD vehicles are required.
The 2018 Edge has strong safety ratings. It gets high marks from NHTSA and IIHS in many crash tests. Airbags (front, side, curtain), electronic stability control, traction control, and optional packages that add blind spot monitoring, lane keeping warnings, cross-traffic alert, etc., make it well prepared for the unexpected.
Colorado is big on road trips, mountain drives, and changes in elevation. The SEL with 201A adds premium touches: heated front seats, leather upholstery, the SYNC 3 infotainment system (8inch touchscreen), Apple CarPlay/Android Auto compatibility, extra USB ports, a higher quality audio system. These make longer drives more pleasant and tech more useful.
The 2.0L turbocharged 4cylinder engine delivers healthy output (horsepower & torque) with the benefit of being paired to AWD. While it may not match a V6 for raw grunt, for many Coloradans the 2.0L AWD in SEL is sufficient for mountainous terrain, passes, and occasional towing. Depending on configuration, the Edge can tow modest loads.
Colorado has deserts, plains, mountains, snow, sun, rain, altitude changes, etc. Features like AWD, heated seats (for cold nights/mornings), remote start (often optional), strong HVAC, good infotainment & durability make this Edge model adaptable for daily commuting, weekend getaways, off pavement roads, or travel to higher elevations. Also helpful when laws require good traction or when on roads where you might need chains, etc.
For anyone living in Colorado, the 2018 Ford Edge SEL 201A AWD offers a strong mix of performance, safety, comfort, and versatility. Its AWD system makes it reliable in winter or variable conditions. The 201A equipment group adds premium comfort and tech, making long drives and daily commuting more pleasant. Fuel economy isn't perfect, but for the power and capability you get, its competitive. Ultimately, if you want an SUV that handles snow, elevation, and long drives without sacrificing refinements, this Edge is a smart choice.
